This could easily turn into the "how many impressions does Adler have?" thread. ;D

For the sake of bandwith, please don't get into an impression brag-fight with Adler. From what I've observed, he will drown you.

I used to have a Heer impression that developed into a Heer FJ , but i got rid of most of the stuff , i might just start another one in the future. By the way , i found a pic of my 45th ID impression , it was taken by 2nd Bat at the Ken Burns "The War" premier.

Right now...hmmm 1. SS Untersturmführer anno 1935 (started out as a halloween thing, but eventuelly took on a life of it's own). 2. SS Brigadeführer anno 1937 (don't ask me why ^_^ ) 3. SS Kriegberichter of Division Nordland. 4. SS Rottenführer of Regiment Danmark (of Division Nordland). 5. SS Machinegunner of Division Nordland. 6. SS Das Reich Obersturmbahnführer. 7. SS Unterscharführer of Division Nordland. And countless configurations to the last one, as it's my primary reenactment impression Plus half an US vietnam and a quarter of an US WW2 airborne impression.

WWII Impressions:
Axis. 9th SS pea dot or the ore classic smock look 2nd panzer (heer) GD panzer officer Brandenburg Commando
Allied. South Staffords Airborne/oxf & bucks/ AAC (dependent on cap badge) SBS mediteranian Essex reg Chindit 2 commando Gordon highlanders 52nd lowland division infantry Hallamshire Battalion Infantry

I've since sold most my modern impressions but must have about ten left. The more you get the easier new ones become, brit kit especially as its usually a change of headdress.

A question; When we talk seperate impressions, does this mean that if you have a complete uniform but two different jackets, that would count as two impressions. Or is it (what I have listed), how many complete impressions you can line up beside each other at the same time? (ecluding of course, a few items that doesn't make any sense to have a quadrillion of, like belts and buckles...5 SS ones gotta be enough ;D )

I consider it being faithfully able to recreate the look of a unit at any one time, it would be moronic for me to own eight sets of UK 37 pat webbing, five of which would be the same...
I do own three sets but they are set up for OR, NCO and commisioned.

Working on an "Operation Overlord" 505th Pathfinder impression. Not sure what battalion yet, but most likely 2nd.
I've got M42's, and jump boots, basic webbing load out and a couple of personal items.
